Player's sympathy

An act of sympathy when a person that is winning by a great margin in a sports or other competitive activity "goes easy" to lessen the embarrassment or pain of the losing person(s).
Drew was winning 56-0 against Bill in Madden, so he showed Player's sympathy by easing up on coverage so that Bill could get on the board.
